Cod Burger with Apple

Published on 12 July 2025 at 20:52

We really enjoy our flaky cod fillet burger. With a crisp sweet appley taste and a soft airy bun. The lemon zest adds a little zing. This  fried treat can be tucked away in a matter of minutes... literally! What truly sets our cod fillet burger apart is the perfectly balanced tartare sauce. Creamy, tangy, and bursting with fresh herbs, it complements the crispy cod perfectly, elevating every bite. Pair it with a side of golden fries or a refreshing salad, and you’ve got a meal that’s not only satisfying but also unforgettable. Every ingredient is chosen to create a symphony of flavours that will keep you coming back for more!

Ingredients

For the apple sauce

Instructions

  • Mix your breadcrumbs in a bowl with lemon zest and smoked sea salt and black pepper.
  • Prepare your cod fillets by coating in flour and then dipping in beaten egg. Next coat in the panko breadcrumbs.
  • Leave to one side whilst you make an apple sauce.
  • For the apple sauce, peel and chop and place into a saucepan. Simmer for 20 mins in the cider vinegar until the apple softens.
  • Sprinkle over some sugar and remove from the heat, allow to cool.
  • Cook the cod in hot oil for 3-4 mins on each side. The breadcrumb should be golden brown.
  • Drain off excess oil on a sheet of kitchen roll. Toast your bread roll and spread the base with some mayonaisse. 
  • Place on some lettuce. Add your crispy cod fillet and a generous spoonful of apple sauce. 
  • Serve with 2 granary baps and fries or salad
